Patterns of emblematic habitat types in Mediterranean temporary wetlands

摘要: This article presents the floristic, structural, and syntaxonomical features of plant assemblages in temporary wetlands pattern corresponding habitat types; according to Habitats Directive. Nine pristine covering a wide range shapes, elevations substrates were monitored. The “within wetlands” hydrological gradient was strong enough drive vegetation type patterns. Plant presented spatial arrangement three concentric belts repeatedly present each site same relative position. presence H3120 recognized central intermediate belt. outer belt more suitable for H3170* priority habitat. Therefore, it should represent main conservation target within wetlands. On other hand, smallest size (only 13% total surface) some cases absent, inconspicuous, or severely fragmented.
